9. Ageratum (floss flower)

If you’re looking for the perfect blooms for a window flower box, look no further than the tufted, round, and flashy Ageratum or floss flower. These robust annuals are available in pink, white, or blue varieties and are one of the best choices for deterring mosquitoes. Plant them in sunny or lightly shaded areas for the most desirable results. Because they prefer warmer temperatures, fans of the flower say it is best to water them with slightly warm water instead of cold.
